Amendment of any part of the Transfer Confirmation within 24 hours (if possible) is charged additionally. The Passenger will be notified of any change in Transfer Confirmation via email.

Article 6 Booking of a Transfer only commits the Company to execute the service if the Passenger confirms the booking by paying the deposit in the amount of 20% of the total price of the Transfer (15% in Switzerland), at least 6 hours before the transfer is to commence for International and EU Transfers, and 2 hours for National Transfers.

If the Passenger doesn't pay the deposit in the above mentioned time frame, the sales team has the right to sell that Transfer to another customer, and the previous Passenger loses their right to the service, as well as right to compensation from the Company.

Transfer Confirmation cannot be issued without a paid deposit.

Article 7 The Company will provide a Transfer Confirmation upon Passenger's request, for the route the Company will execute.

REFUND OF THE TRANSFER FEE

Article 8 The Company commits to issue the Passenger with a refund in case of Transfer cancellation, for the services unrendered.

The conditions for a refund are as follows: - Cancellation requested up to 5 days before the Transfer – 100% refund - Cancellation requested up to 24 hrs before the Transfer – 80% refund - Cancellation requested within 24 hrs of the Transfer – no refund

In case the Passenger submits a request to the Company for a cancellation of a return trip, and if the request fulfils the conditions listed above, the Company will only charge the Passenger for the first trip of the Transfer and refund the remaining amount.

When issuing a refund, the amount to be refunded will be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

If the guest refuses to pay for the provided service, the Transfer company has the full right to demand payment (by charging the credit card provided to us by the client) for the service that was carried out.

If, on the other hand, guest believes that the service was carried out in an unsatisfactory manner the guest is entitled to file a written complaint to the transfer company in accordance with the general Terms and Conditions.

Article 9 A Passenger that erroneously used services of another transfer company, instead of Connecto Mare d.o.o., whose services they paid, is not eligible for a refund.

In case of a 'No show', the full amount will be charged.

If the Transfer was booked within 3 days of the Transfer date, charged deposit won't be refunded. In case of a 'No Show', full amount will be charged.

The Passenger can cancel their Transfer without charge up to 5 days before the Transfer date, and the full amount will be refunded.

Change of Transfer dates is not charged additionally, but change of the starting and/or ending destination or type of the vehicle, will be charged according to the prices for specified routes/vehicle.

It's the Passenger's responsibility to ensure that all Transfer details are correct. Refund won't be issued in cases where the Passenger booked directly through the website and entered wrong details during the booking process.In case the Passenger is late for a flight or any other means of transportation because of the weather conditions and/or the conditions on the road that were not directly caused by the Company, the Company cannot be held accountable nor can be expected to cover the resulting expenses.

In case the Company is directly responsible for the delay (e.g. flat tyre, empty tank, driver was late for transfer etc.), the cost of transfer will be compensated. In case the Passenger, due to the Company's fault, needs to arrange different means of transportation, then the same will be organised only in collaboration with the Company (organisation of the new transfer, purchase of bus, train or airplane tickets etc.). Only the cost of the transport will be compensated to the Passenger. Only transport organised this way, in collaboration with the Company, will be compensated to the Passenger.

Time of departure toward the airport, or any other destination, is merely a suggestion by the agent, and only valid for standard routes and normal road conditions.

The Passenger may or may not accept suggested departure time, and can change departure time to a time that they believe is more suitable. In that case, the Passenger is obliged to notify the Company's main office of the change of desired departure time so that the Transfer Confirmation can be updated.

If the Passenger doesn't notify the office of the change of desired departure time, the Company cannot be held accountable in case of a late arrival.

During the booking of a transfer towards the airport and when choosing departure time, the Passenger needs to keep in mind that, in general, it's advisable to be at the airport 2 hours before the flight, and therefore, 2 hours need to be added to the length of the transfer to avoid being late for the flight.

When calculating the length of the route and time it will take to complete the Transfer, we use a formula of adding 20% on top of the approximate distance given by Google maps between two locations.

Departure time is explicitly Passenger's decision and the Company cannot be held accountable in case the Passenger is late for any other means of transportation due to the departure time they have chosen.

After receiving the Transfer Confirmation, it's Passenger's duty to carefully examine the details, and by accepting and agreeing with the details listed in the Transfer Confirmation, the Passenger accepts full responsibility for the outcome of the Transfer.

Article 10 The company commits to issue a refund to the Passenger, minus 20% handling fees, if the Passenger submits Transfer cancellation request.

If the Transfer was booked within 3 days of the Transfer date, charged deposit won't be refunded. In case of a 'No Show', full amount will be charged.

The Passenger can cancel their Transfer without charge up to 5 days before the Transfer date, and the full amount will be refunded.

Changing the Transfer dates is not subject to additional charges, but changing the starting and/or ending destination or type of the vehicle, will be charged according to the prices for specified routes/vehicle.

Article 11 If the Passenger pays the deposit or the total price of Transfer, and then submits a cancellation request for that same Transfer, they can request a refund if the conditions below are met:

a) Refund of the deposit (20% of the total price, 15% in Switzerland) if the Transfer is cancelled at least 3 days before b) Refund of the full amount if Transfer is cancelled at least 5 days before
